foreign policy, we are joined by the managing editor of foreign policy magazine, blake hounshell. we start in northeast asia where north korea this week has threatened to undertake a pre- emptive nuclear strike on the united states and south korea. what prompted that and how seriously does the u.s. needs to take tit? guest: i have a one year-old kid about to have his first birthday. i look at this as north korea dropping its food of the trade. when my kid is done with dinner and it's something he does not like, he drops it off the trade. they don't like the u.n. sanctions and they are saying that we will throw our food. yesterday they said that they were going to launch a pre- emptive strike against the united states and its interests. as far as we know, north korea does not have the capability to do that. they cannot put miniaturized nuclear weapons on missiles. they are calling for attention. they want the united states to come to the table and offer some concessions and they want to embarrass the new south korean government that just took power. host: you talk about the u.n. sa
